I got to prod a SADiE system a few years back, its kinda similar to what we have in mind for the timeline stuff, but it let you arrange audio segments too (we're not planning to do that, use ardour). Infact it works more like JAMIN than the current mac/windows hosted tools do, in that its independent, theres nothing to stop you piping live multitrack audio into a SADiE system from what I remember. Infact it may even have had multirack inputs for internal mixing, but I can't quite remember. I wonder if they have manuals online. - Steve
